West Marine sells Ancor (so does Walmart): [url=https://www.westmarine.com/buy/ancor--white-repair-tape-1-x-10--17093642?mrkgcl=481&mrkgadid=3252486964&rkg_id=h-84925966a355287131397647c062548e_t-1519175559&cm_mmc=PS-_-Google-_-GSC%2520-%2520West%2520Marine%2520Branded-_-17093642&product_id=17093642]https://www.westmarine.com/buy/ancor--white-repair-tape-1-x-10--17093642?mrkgcl=481&mrkgadid=3252486964&rkg_id=h-84925966a355287131397647c062548e_t-1519175559&cm_mmc=PS-_-Google-_-GSC%2520-%2520West%2520Marine%2520Branded-_-17093642&product_id=17093642[/url]
'Rescue Tape' also seems to be a common brand. That said, I bought some off-brand last season and it is holding together well.

... I think any self-fusing, self-amalgamating, self-bonding, self-vulcanizing tape will work. The key seems to be that the tape has no adhesive (it ain't sticky until you stretch it). Perhaps the better ones have more anti-UV additives or more stretch, but for beachcat use, the cheap stuff has been fine.
